I take paxil (paroxetine) 40mg. i am ready to come off of it. how can i come off of paxil (paroxetine) safely and with the least amount of side effects?

Paxil (paroxetine)?: First u should discuss it with u prescriber . If he agrees to it , he will ask u to tapper it down.

Consult With MD: First and foremost, always consult with the prescribing md before making any changes to your medication regimen. Paxil (generic paroxetine) is well known to cause problems when tapering. One may experience anxiety, insomnia, and flu-like symptoms (known as discontinuation syndrome) when tapering. The key to avoid such problems is to taper slowly and to work closely with one's md. Good luck.
